Affective Intimacies (Hardcover): Marjo Kolehmainen, Annukka Lahti, Kinneret Lahad Affective Intimacies (Hardcover)
Marjo Kolehmainen, Annukka Lahti, Kinneret Lahad
R2,440 Discovery Miles 24 400 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume provides a novel platform to re-evaluate the notion of open-ended intimacies through the lens of affect theories. Contributors address the embodied, affective and psychic, sensorial and embodied aspects of their ongoing intimate entanglements across various timely phenomena. This fascinating collection asks how the study of affect enables us to rethink intimacies, what affect theories can do to the prevailing notion of intimacy and how they renew and enrich theories of intimacy in a manner which also considers its normative and violent forms. This collection brings together a selection of original chapters which invite readers to rethink such concepts as care, closeness and connectivity through the notion of affective intimacies. Based on rigorous research, it offers novel insights on a variety of themes from austerity culture to online discussions on regretting motherhood, from anti-ableist notions of health to teletherapies in the era of COVID-19, and from queer intimacies to critiques of empathy. Lively and thought-provoking, this collection contributes to timely topics across the social sciences, representing multiple disciplines from gender studies, sociology and cultural studies to anthropology and queer studies. By so doing, it advances the value of interdisciplinary perspectives and creative methodologies for understanding affective intimacies. -- .

R1,331 Discovery Miles 13 310 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Using a cross-cultural perspective, The Everyday Makings of Heteronormativity: Cross-Cultural Explorations of Sex, Gender, and Sexuality examines the conceptual formulation of heteronormativity and highlights the mundane operations of its construction in diverse contexts. Heterosexual culture simultaneously institutionalizes its narrations and normalcies, operating in a way that preserves its own coherency. Heteronormativity gains its privileges and coherency through public operations and the mutuality of the public and private spheres. The contributors to this edited collection examine this coherency and privilege and explore in ethnographic detail the operations and making of heteronormative devices: material, affective, narrative, spatial, and bodily. This book is recommended for students and scholars of anthropology, sociology, and gender and sexuality studies.

R3,125 Discovery Miles 31 250 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

With a cross-cultural perspective, the essays in The Everyday Makings of Heteronormativity examine the consistent constructing of heteronormativity as a way to contribute to the conceptual formulation of the term, bring forward the mundane operations of it in diverse contexts, and establish heteronormativity as the focus of an ethnographic lens. Heterosexual culture simultaneously institutionalizes its narrations and normalcies, so that it operates in a way towards preserving its own coherency. Heteronormativity gains its privileges and coherency through public operations, and the mutuality of public and private. The chapters in this volume examine this coherency and privilege, to explore in ethnographic detail the operations and making of heteronormative devices: material, affective, narrative, spatial and bodily.
